Lark Messenger: the heart of team communication
When it comes to staying connected in today’s remote work world, messaging is the foundation of most team communication. Lark Messenger makes it easy for team members to communicate seamlessly, whether they’re in the office or working remotely.
You can send instant messages, start voice or video calls, and share files all within one platform. The beauty of Lark Messenger is that it runs smoothly with the other features of Lark, ensuring you have everything in one place.

Also, you can turn a simple decision into a task with one click, and work hand in hand with your colleague. This flexibility eliminates the need for multiple apps, improving your team’s efficiency.
Lark Calendar: a unified scheduling solution
Setting up meetings, meeting deadlines, and just planning your day can quickly become a logistical nightmare. Meet Lark Calendar. Lark Calendar allows you to easily set up a meeting, schedule reminders, and track deadlines all within the same platform.
The real power is when you link Lark Calendar with Lark Tasks and Lark Meetings. Say you want to schedule a meeting but also want to add tasks, share updates, and collaborate seamlessly in real time. You can do all of this right from your calendar view, which means your team stays organized and on top of any deadlines.
The ability to easily share calendars with teammates simplifies identifying times that work for everyone. No more back-and-forth emails trying to determine who is available when—you can have scheduling solved quickly using Lark Calendar.
Lark Base: automating workflows for efficiency
One of the standout features of Lark is Lark Base, a no-code platform that empowers teams to automate complex workflows without any programming knowledge. Whether you’re in HR, sales, or product management, Lark Base lets you build customized workflows that streamline your processes.
For example, imagine you’re in charge of processing employee leave requests. Instead of manually handling each request, you can set up an automated workflow right in Lark Base Workflow, with zero code. The moment an employee submits a leave request, the system can automatically notify the relevant department, adjust the team’s availability, and even update project timelines—saving valuable time and reducing human error.
With automated workflows like this, you can focus on high-priority tasks and let Lark do the heavy lifting. Lark provides a smooth workflow via the Approval feature, which can be rooted into your team’s daily processes. These features are critical for teams looking to streamline operations and boost overall efficiency. Learn more about setting up an automated workflow within your business with Lark.

For example, while working through a project proposal with another person, Lark Docs allows both of you to edit the document as you simultaneously collaborate. One of the great features is that you can see each other’s live changes and comments in real-time, remove email chains or versioning struggles, and provide each other with feedback at the same time.
Lark Docs is a great tool for a collaborative environment and for teams that want everyone to be on the same page. You can produce documents from reports to presentations in Lark Docs, making it a key component of your team’s tools.
Lark Meetings: simplifying virtual meetings

Whether it be convening with your team for a strategy coworking session or for a one-on-one check-in with a fellow team member, using Lark’s video conferencing component makes it easy to connect.
With capabilities such as screen shares, meeting recordings, and collaboration with Lark Calendar, it’s easy to set up and join a meeting. You can even schedule a meeting within Lark Calendar, which directly sends meeting invites to all participants with all pertinent details.
Lark Meetings also connects directly with Lark Docs, allowing you to share any documents during the meeting, and collaborate seamlessly in real-time, so everyone is on the same page.
